  1. PVT IS DEAD! Don't try the "new" trick

    RN9742 replied to scaredsilly's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    From what I am ready, Pearson updated their website and the trick no longer works.... And I would avoid clicking submit, no refunds if it goes

  2. PAY FOR NEW GRADUATE RN's FOR COLUMBIA/ST LOUIS MISSOURI AREA

    RN9742 replied to omoolaa's topic in General Nursing

    That's a fairly normal starting pay for no experience from what i

  3. BSN programs are harder than ADN

    RN9742 replied to ExpBrittany's topic in General Students

    I would venture to guess that this is more program specific. Our local ADN program is much tougher than the local BSN program. Most people in the program are taking other courses besides nursing to...

    RN9742 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I was given so much advice about what to study, how to answer questions, topics to know down pat etc etc.... But the best tip I was given: When answering questions think about what keeps the patient...

  6. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    RN9742 replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took my NCLEX-RN Wednesday at noon (7/16), 75q in about an hour. Tried the pvt when I got to my car, and got the good pop up. Today i got my quick results and its a

  7. ACLS, how much prep for the class

    RN9742 replied to blondie1887's topic in General Nursing

    I took it before I graduated and had to take an online pre-test first. I also took an EKG class prior to the acls, i really think that helped. There are a ton of YouTube videos that are super helpful...

  8. Nclex invalidated due to cell phone

    RN9742 replied to star-crossed's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm surprised you were allowed to go to your car in the first place, at my testing center leaving the building for any reason was grounds for test

  9. Is cheating a double standard?

    RN9742 replied to 28studentsfailed's topic in General Students

    Id venture to guess my critical thinking skills are just fine, after all i passed nursing school with a higher than needed passing grade, and our school already had a higher standard than yours....

  10. Is cheating a double standard?

    RN9742 replied to 28studentsfailed's topic in General Students

    How about you work your butt off and make grades that are no where near failing.... Problem solved! I will never understand people who blame others for their failure, if you don't make the grade you...

  11. First name on my DL doesn't match the name on my ATT

    RN9742 replied to whatsmyusername_RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I would contact pearsonvue directly and ask about it. Better to get the word directly from the source, than he said/ she

  12. Graduating High School with ASN

    RN9742 replied to KCW98's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    These are questions you would have to direct to the college you wish to attend. Most dual credit classes however in my experience will only get you a general associates degree so you have less work to...

  13. Being a SAHM after graduation

    RN9742 replied to KatarinaCoffman's topic in Nursing Career

    Also you can work part time and sometimes even prn. But if you want to work as a nurse, then you will need experience. Being a new grad is tough enough, I cannot imagine being a old grad with no...

  14. What countries are in demand for IEN (internationally educated nurses)?

    RN9742 replied to Lebazir's topic in International Nursing

    I recently read an article that stated the UK was in high demand of

  15. Mom & Nursing Student

    RN9742 replied to KnottyNurse17's topic in General Students

    Make a schedule, even if it is loosely followed, it will help you keep your sanity. I am a mom of 4, and it often seemed kids were running in 20 directions. By scheduling even my study time, I had a...

  16. Is It Necessary?

    RN9742 replied to osi2011's topic in General Students

    I bought an ipad, but never used it for note taking. I prefer the ink and paper method. However rather than printing everything, I would download it onto my ipad which was much easier to cart around...

  17. Keep Applying, or wait a bit?

    RN9742 posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    New Grad of course! :) I have been applying for jobs since before I graduated, but in my area it seems most employers wont even look at you until you are licensed. I did apply for many new grad...

  18. Keep Applying, or wait a bit?

    RN9742 replied to RN9742's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I will take my NCLEX as soon as I can, i don't intend to wait for more study time. I just have no idea how long it will take to get my ATT. I just revamped my resume, and had a couple people looking...

  19. Question about A&P and nursing school future

    RN9742 replied to Irish_Mist's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I could have done better in my A&P classes, and during the course of my nursing program i noticed something. Those who did extremely well in A&P, seemed to be ones who struggled to make those...

  20. Nursing School changing criteria to pass classes

    RN9742 replied to Reese2012's topic in General Students

    Oh and I'd like to add, that the 80% is almost entirely made up of exam grades, we don't have graded homework. We have quizzes and occasionally case studies that make up a very small portion of our...

    RN9742 replied to Reese2012's topic in General Students

    Ours is 80% and has been the entire

  22. LSUHSC-SON, has anyone missed a day of clinical in Foundations of Nursing???

    RN9742 replied to LSUHSC_2016's topic in General Students

    Also, all of that should be in your policy and procedure book if you have one, we had to buy one first semester. That info was not in our syllabus since it applied to all the semesters of

  23. LSUHSC-SON, has anyone missed a day of clinical in Foundations of Nursing???

    RN9742 replied to LSUHSC_2016's topic in General Students

    At my school you would make up the hours. However there is a process to follow when calling off for clinicals and if you fail to follow that process you can be given an unsatisfactory for that...

  24. I'm sick, but should I miss clinical?

    RN9742 replied to haileyjewell's topic in General Students

    I would call off if it is that bad, and I would go to the doc if it is getting worse several days later. You should be feeling better by

  25. Titer and vaccines question?!

    RN9742 replied to Domo231's topic in General Students

    If your titer comes back not showing immunity, you will have to get a "booster" or go through the series again. I did not have my shot records any longer so I had titers drawn, I did not show immunity...
